If 200 MeV energy is released per fission of
nuclei. Find the mass of
consumed (in mg) per day in a reactor of power 1 MW assuming its efficiency is
.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
CHECK THE SOLUTION.
(1.324)
Energy produced in one day
joule

So input energy 
Energy released in one fission

No. of fissions per day
Mass of
consumed per day
no. of nuclei disintegrating per day × mass of
